Why are the Talismans I Drawn Banned Again?! - Chapter 274
Chapter 274: Chapter 228: The Martial Virtue Combat Method Re-emerges in the Jianghu
“Hello, unauthorized individuals are not permitted to enter our school.”
At the entrance of Qingxuan University, the security personnel stopped Jiang Cheng and Liu Qing.
Compared to Lotus University, Capital University, and other schools, the level of restriction at Qingxuan University was evidently higher.
At Lotus University, Jiang Cheng could stay overnight at Jade Lake Ming’an instead of returning to the dormitory, but he couldn’t do that at Qingxuan University.
Not only did Qingxuan University have access control, limiting entry and exit, but there was also a dormitory supervisor who called roll every night. If a student disappeared several times without reason, they might even be expelled from the school.
Jiang Cheng showed his Visitor Card, actively cooperating with the security department.
Then, he was stopped again.
“You cannot go in,” the security guard said.
“I’ve already shown my Visitor Card.”
“The Visitor Card only allows one person through, and we’ve already let her in,” the security guard pointed at Liu Qing.
Jiang Cheng: “Uh…”
The security guard looked puzzled for a moment, then said, “I thought you were her butler. Seeing how beautifully she’s dressed, I assumed she was a young mistress from some family. Sorry for the confusion, please register again.”
Jiang Cheng was not surprised.
Nine out of ten times he went out with Liu Qing, they would encounter misunderstandings.
Mainly because Liu Qing had a strong presence, dressed beautifully and expensively, added to her reluctance to talk and her graceful manner, it was easy for others to mistake her for a high-born young mistress from a noble family.
“Wait a moment.”
Jiang Cheng stepped into Qingxuan University and pulled Liu Qing out with him.
Since Qingxuan University wouldn’t allow two people in, he could only temporarily leave Liu Qing outside the campus.
After all, he couldn’t let her just stand at the school gate waiting, could he?
Jiang Cheng looked around and spotted a cake shop, then led Liu Qing inside.
“You wait here for me.”
“Oh.”
After instructing Liu Qing, Jiang Cheng said to the waitress at the cake shop: “I’ll come back to pay for her expenses.”
“Sure, no problem.”
The waitress readily agreed, then passed the menu to Liu Qing, “Here’s the menu, what would you like to eat?”
Liu Qing extended her slender, jade-like finger and pointed at a dark dessert cake on the menu.
“Would you like this one?” asked the waitress enthusiastically.
Because that cake was not cheap.
“I don’t want this one,” Liu Qing said.
The waitress appeared slightly confused, “Okay, then what would you like?”
“I don’t want this one.”
The waitress’s face showed embarrassment, “I know, so what would you like?”
Liu Qing slightly frowned, feeling that this woman was rather slow. She had made herself very clear, yet the waitress still couldn’t understand.
Liu Qing blinked her eyes, took out a talisman, dialed Jiang Cheng’s number, and then placed the talisman on the table.
“Hello?”
“I do not want this one,” she said.
The waitress forced a smile: “Haha, I know you don’t want it.”
On the other end of the talisman, Jiang Cheng, as if he could read her mind, said: “Hello, what she means is, she wants everything except the one she said she doesn’t want.”
Liu Qing looked at the talisman and nodded slightly.
She had spoken very clearly; Jiang Cheng was always able to understand her.
The waitress, so clueless.
The waitress, looking at the menu which was neither thick nor thin, said to Jiang Cheng with an incredulous tone: “Are you sure? Your girlfriend just ordered nearly a hundred different cakes.”
“Is that a bit too much?” Jiang Cheng asked.
“It’s indeed a bit too much.”
“Well, then take your time making them. It’s okay, she can eat slowly.”
The waitress: ?
Are you focusing on the right thing here?
“Take it slow,” Liu Qing said.
“Oh, okay,” the waitress understood this time.
Liu Qing silently retracted her previous judgment as she watched the waitress walk away.
The waitress, not clueless.
A good person.
…
Although there were some complications in entering the campus, Jiang Cheng still arrived at the gymnasium of Qingxuan University ahead of time.
The good news was that Liang Lu also arrived early and didn’t make Jiang Cheng wait for her.
Since it wasn’t their first meeting, there was no awkwardness between them.
Liang Lu got straight to the point: “Why do you want to help me?”
Jiang Cheng reiterated his position—he had merely drawn the talisman legally and systematically; he hadn’t done anything else.
Liang Lu had heard enough of Jiang Cheng’s explanations.
She decided to start from the beginning: “What does the death of Prince Liang Chu have to do with you?”
“A pure accident.”
“And Prince Qi?”
“His case was not an accident, mainly because of…” Jiang Cheng briefly described the situation at the time.
Liang Lu was staggered.
Because he didn’t want to turn a blind eye, he ended up wiping out the entire Demon Sect?
Why was the truth more outrageous than the stories she had imagined!
However, while Jiang Cheng had shifted the blame for interfering with the royal succession, his special relationship with the Taixu Sect was further confirmed.
“As for Prince Liang Wu and Prince Liang Hong, to be honest, I’m not sure why they insisted on asking me to draw talismans,” Jiang Cheng explained.
“The talisman for Prince Liang Wu was not drawn by me but by a senior of mine. The talisman for Prince Liang Hong was indeed drawn by me.”
“By the way, Prince Liang Qing also came to me recently for a talisman.”
“Because of Li Qing?” Liang Lu asked.
“Exactly, how did you know? Oh, right, you’re from Qingxuan University, so it’s not surprising that you’ve heard of Li Qing.”
“But I haven’t heard of Li Qing’s great reputation.”
“Hm?”
Liang Lu smiled: “If I’m not mistaken, I know why the three princes came to you.”
Jiang Cheng asked with curiosity: “So what are you trying to say?”
“We can make a deal,” Liang Lu said.
“What do you mean?”
Liang Lu seemed confident in her leverage over Jiang Cheng, slowly saying: “I tell you the reason the princes came to you, and you draw me a talisman.”
Jiang Cheng, completely unconcerned and with a smile barely concealing a smirk, said: “But I don’t want to know why the princes came to me.”
Liang Lu: ?
Jiang Cheng shrugged his shoulders, “I’m not interested in your siblings’ affairs. I agreed to draw a talisman for Liang Qing only because the Linlan Sect was willing to let me access their library.”
